valuable & useful books in 6Silver that were not in 5Bronze?
I'm wondering what You all consider the most valuable and useful additions when it comes to books in L6 Anglican Silver compared to L5 Anglican Bronze? Do those in Your opinion make it a good base-package for me even if I would have to take a short-term payment-plan and the currency exchange rate over here is bad and getting worse all the time? I'm not talking about the features - unless the features make use of some of the books in the base-package.
Or do You think it's better to save the money for prepubs?

I am going to list the items of most value to me:
*The Lectionary Commentary: Theological Exegesis for Sunday's Texts (3 vols.)
--these volumes contain decent commentary on the various RCL periscopes the OT volume is the typological and not semi-continuous track.
*Eerdmans Companion to the Bible
--while this is very basic, it is very well done and useful for what it is.
*A Dictionary Of Biblical Tradition In English Literature
--I have only browsed this but it seems to be quite informative.
*The Theological Dictionary of the New Testament, Abridged in One Volume
--this is a most useful abridgement of the full set and indeed for my use I find it often all i need.
*Apostolic Fathers Reverse Interlinear
--an invaluable resource for those of us not fluent in greek.
*Dictionary of Major Biblical Interpreters
--great reference work.
*Reading Scripture with the Church Fathers
--Great introduction, part of a four part series, with the last volume not yet released.
*The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church, rev. ed.
--One of the first books I bought in Logos, this is a great reference work.
*Exegetical Dictionary of the New Testament (3 vols.)
–this is not one I use much but knowing a bit of your interests I think it would be one you would use.
These books I have listed are well worth having. I am disappointed that the best one volume dictionary out there is not included in Silver (2000 Freedman edition of Eerdmans Bible Dictionary which is my goto dictionary starting off normally). These are the resources that would be new to a bronze 5 user in Anglican silver 6 that are most worth having i my mind. I would also note the media set of pictures are a nice thing but not needful in my minds eye.

PS: This was meant to be better formatted but for some strange reason it is just grouping it into one big paragraph.0 -
Wow. I didn't know those lectionary resources were in my library! What a great thing to learn.
I wonder if there's anyway to get them to appear in sermon prep passage guide?

Just run a passage guide and they should show up...(occasionally I have seen the PG puts up something not dealing directly but a near passage).

Well, yes. There they are! Thanks.
(I have so many commentary sets that I've collected over the years that these new lectionary sets are always way down on the list and I overlooked them. Truly an embarrassment of riches with Logos.)

Be careful, Logos can become addicting. [:D]
I am not saying that I am addicted to the acquisition of Knowledge using Logos. I am just warning others. I am ok. Really.
